That was just crazy. It makes you wonder what music will be like years from now, with musicians being so damn inventive when it comes to looking at traditional instruments from a unique perspective…
His left hand is using a technique called “hammering on”.
Think of a way that a hammer in a piano hits the strings, that’s basically the same principle.
His right hand is using a combination of “Tambor” (hitting the strings in a chord sequence) and “tapping” which is sounding one string at a time.
Not hard to do but very hard to do to the standard shown here.
i know as a guitarist this technique is pretty dang hard and to write a masterpeice like this is just simply amzing you have to just enjoy the sheer amazingness of this even on acoustic which makes it harder..er haha
Damn, that was awesome. How does a person even set their guitar up to do that? Do you have to super tighten the strings?

Is that technique he’s using actually called Fingertapping? Does anyone know? I’d like to look up more videos…
He’s plucking past the nut at one point and the rest is tapping the strings at the fret.
